Wicked History: Napoleon by Goldberg & Izkowitz

The book that I read is called Napoleon by Kimberly Heuston. I think this book is most likely to be in the non-fiction genre. I really liked this book because it told me a lot about Napoleon and how he was a leader of the French Empire in 1804. In this book, there was lots of action, and it showed a lot of his battles. There are a lot of wars and violent things in it, and this book really talked about how good of a warrior he was. I think this book would be really good for people who like to learn about their history and what happened in the French Empire. I think this book was really interesting because of how much action there was and because there were also photos in the book, like when he conquered the lands in his wars. I think this book would be best suited for someone who wants to learn about their history.  (Kiran. Grade 7)

Napoleon, Emperor, and Conqueror, by Kimberley Heuston, was not a very enjoyable book to read. It is a non-fiction history of the life and accomplishments of Napoleon Bonaparte. The reason I was not too fond of it was that firstly, it was dull. This book revolves around the premise of war and history, which collectively are exciting topics to read about. Somehow, this book lacked that spark which made it very hard to continue reading. Secondly, the book is very short and the vocabulary is very simple. It is only 121 pages which is not a challenge worthy of a middle school student, save for reasons such as language barriers, etc. I think this book should be read less for entertainment and more for research purposes as the one thing that this book has a lot of is accurate historical information. I would recommend this book for ages five and up, more specifically for readers researching the life and accomplishments of Napoleon or who are researching french history.  (Anna. Grade 7)

Napoleon: Emperor and Conqueror by Kimberley Heuston is a book about the life of Napoleon Bonaparte. It provides an in-depth look at his childhood, rise to power, military conquests, and downfall. The book is well-researched and provides a lot of information about Napoleon's life. However, it is written in a dry and factual manner, which can make it difficult for some readers to stay engaged.

This book is part of the "Rulers, Warriors, and Heroes" series and is suitable for readers who are interested in history and biographies. It provides a comprehensive and detailed overview of Napoleon's life and provides readers with a better understanding of the man behind the legend.

Overall, I would give Napoleon: Emperor and Conqueror a 3 out of 5. The book is well-researched and provides a lot of information, but the writing style can make it a bit of a challenge to read. If you are interested in learning more about Napoleon's life and legacy, this book is a good place to start, but be prepared for a more academic reading experience.  (Cris. Grade 7)

The book ‘A wicked history Napoleon Emperor and Conqueror by Kimberley Heuston is a historical and a non-fiction type of book.

It talks about his battles and his wins and loses and how he struggled to become who he’s known for today. What I like about this book is about how visual representations and little squares of facts are included after every few pages. It is an easy book to read and it is not so long. I would recommend this book to those who love short historical books.  (Lilly. Grade 7)
